Perfect!

This is THE only app to use for podcasts. You can sort the podcasts into any order that suits you. You can play all episodes of the same podcast one after the other, which is perfect for long car journeys, or set up your own system so you can get a bit of variety with your listening.

You can sync between your devices (it was a little less obvious how to do this, but a quick message to the developer sorted that one out, so full marks there too).

Honestly, once you’ve used this app you’ll never go back to the Apple one. I’ve deleted it.

Been using for a year or so

I think it’s better than Apple’s podcast app. I like the queue but wish it’d remove podcasts I’ve already played from the list.

I know about expiring them but they still seem to be greyed out in my queue after I’ve played them.

I think some more thought in the UI is needed in that area given I find it unintuitive. I’ve built a few UIs you’ve likely used over the years and workflow is the key.

Anyway, great app and made in the UK too so kudos to the dev.

Any thoughts on making suggestions based on subscriptions? Might be tricky but it’d be a killer feature.

Been able to cast a podcast to a Roku or Kodi device would be handy. Pretty easy to do.

Maybe something to make money from?

Perfect

This app is everything the Apple Podcast app wishes it was. It’s user friendly, easy to set up to suit any individual’s personal preferences and is laid out in a simple and straightforward manner. I have deleted the Apple app completely and use this app for al my podcast. I just wish I could sync via my PC.
